Dynamical concurrence of initially separable bipartite system immersed in N-qubit environment

Abstract

Abstract In this paper, we calculate the concurrence for two entangled qubits that are immersed in either a homogeneous or a heterogeneous N-qubit environment. The concurrence for the discrete homogeneous environment was found to behave periodically depending on the interaction strengths ω S 1 S 2 and Γ. For the case of a heterogeneous environment, we set the interaction strength Γ Siεk as uniformly random. This case mimics of a noisy environment as it illustrates an asymptotic decay of entanglement. The sudden death behavior found in the heterogenous case becomes more prominent for larger N number of qubit environments, and no other entanglement is found as time t → ∞.

Entanglement dynamics of a pure bipartite system in dissipative environments

Rabia Tahira, Manzoor Ikram, Tasnim Azim +1 more

We investigate the phenomenon of sudden death of entanglement in a bipartite system subjected to dissipative environments with arbitrary initial pure entangled state between two atoms. We find that in a vacuum reservoir the presence of the state where both atoms are in excited states is a necessary condition for the sudden death of entanglement. Otherwise entanglement remains for an infinite time and decays asymptotically with the decay of individual qubits. For pure 2-qubit entangled states in a thermal environment, we observe that the sudden death of entanglement always happens. The sudden death time of the entangled states is related to the temperature of the reservoir and the initial preparation of the entangled states.

The entanglement dynamics of the bipartite quantum system: toward entanglement sudden death

Wei Cui, Zairong Xi, Yu Pan

We investigate the entanglement dynamics of the bipartite quantum system between two qubits with the dissipative environment. We begin with the standard Markovian master equation in the Lindblad form and the initial state which is prepared in the extended Werner-like state: ρ Φ AB (0). We examine the conditions for entanglement sudden death (ESD) and calculate the corresponding ESD time by the Wootters concurrence. We observe that ESD is determined by the parameters such as the mean occupation number of the environment N , amount of initial entanglement α and the purity r . For N = 0, we get the analytical expressions of both ESD condition and ESD time. For N > 0 we give a theoretical analysis that ESD always occurs, and simulate the concurrence as a function of γ 0 t and one of the parameters N , α and r .

Avoiding the decay of entanglement for coupling two-qubit system interacting with a non-Markov environment

Yinghua Ji, Yongmei Liu, Zisheng Wang

The entanglement evolution of the coupled qubits interacting with a non-Markov environment is investigated in terms of concurrence. The results show that the entanglement of the quantum systems depends not only on the initial state of the system but also on the coupling between the qubit and the environment. For the initial state , the coupled qubits will always been in the maximum entangled state under an asymmetric coupling. For the initial state , in contrast, the entangling degree of the coupled qubits is always equal to unity and does not depend on the evolving time under the symmetric coupling. We find that the stronger the interaction between the qubits is, the better the struggle against the entanglement sudden death is.

Entanglement dynamics of high-dimensional bipartite field states inside the cavities in dissipative environments

Rabia Tahira, Manzoor Ikram, Smail B. Bougouffa +1 more

We investigate the phenomenon of sudden death of entanglement in a high-dimensional bipartite system subjected to dissipative environments with an arbitrary initial pure entangled state between two fields in the cavities. We find that in a vacuum reservoir, the presence of the state where one or more than one (two) photons in each cavity are present is a necessary condition for the sudden death of entanglement. Otherwise entanglement remains for infinite time and decays asymptotically with the decay of individual qubits. For pure two-qubit entangled states in a thermal environment, we observe that sudden death of entanglement always occurs. The sudden death time of the entangled states is related to the number of photons in the cavities, the temperature of the reservoir and the initial preparation of the entangled states.

Non-Markovian entanglement dynamics between two coupled qubits in the same environment

Wei Cui, Zairong Xi, Yu Pan

We analyze the dynamics of the entanglement in two independent non-Markovian channels. In particular, we focus on the entanglement dynamics as a function of the initial states and the channel parameters like the temperature and the ratio $r$ between $ω_0$ the characteristic frequency of the quantum system of interest, and $ω_c$ the cut-off frequency of Ohmic reservoir. We give a stationary analysis of the concurrence and find that the dynamic of non-markovian entanglement concurrence $\mathcal{C}_ρ(t)$ at temperature $k_BT=0$ is different from the $k_BT>0$ case. We find that "entanglement sudden death" (ESD) depends on the initial state when $k_BT=0$, otherwise the concurrence always disappear at finite time when $k_BT>0$, which means that ESD must happen. The main result of this paper is that the non-Markovian entanglement dynamic is fundamentally different from the Markovian one. In the Markovian channel, entanglement decays exponentially and vanishes only asymptotically, but in the non-Markovian channel the concurrence $\mathcal{C}_ρ(t)$ oscillates, especially in the high temperature case. Then an open-loop controller adjusted by the temperature is proposed to control the entanglement and prolong the ESD time.

Dynamics of two qubits in common environment

E. N. Bratus’, Leonid Andreevich Pastur

We consider the entanglement evolution of two qubits embedded into disordered multiconnected environment. We model the environment and its interaction with qubits by large random matrices allowing for a possibility to describe environments of meso- and even nanosize. We obtain general formulas for the time dependent reduced density matrix of the qubits corresponding to several cases of the qubit-environment interaction and initial condition. We then work out an analog of the Born–Markov approximation to find the evolution of the widely used entanglement quantifiers: the concurrence, the negativity and the quantum discord. We show that even in this approximation the time evolution of the reduced density matrix can be non-Markovian, thereby describing certain memory effects due to the backaction of the environment on qubits. In particular, we find the vanishing of the entanglement (Entanglement Sudden Death) at finite moments and its revivals (Entanglement Sudden Birth). Our results, partly known and partly new, can be viewed as a manifestation of the universality of certain properties of decoherent qubit evolution which have been found previously in various versions of bosonic macroscopic environment.
